Coronavirus Memes: its doubtful that 2021 will be better

 

Someone said that a few years from now, when you find a mask in the pocket of an old coat you will look back on 2020 with a smile, before going at it with the roving band of cannibals looking to eat you.

Survival of the unexposed, and continuity of civilization, requires everyone who has ever had the coronavirus to pretty much be deported to mainland Australia to live out their lives while the rest of the world goes on without them.

Incompetent and corrupt government has no moral high ground, and they will never sacrifice themselves for that whole greater good. So... later this morning, as I sweep up the shattered beer bottles my drunk, angry neighbours just smashed in the driveway at 1:30 a.m. because they feel a loss of control in their little lives, I will look forward to cooking breakfast. 

Humans outlived twenty thousand years of asteroid bombardment. Any remnant of civilization they took with them into the caves, whittled down to just one family huddled in a cave with no memory of laws, governments, cities, or starships.

We go on.
